One of the positives of hauling out in Trinidad is that you're relatively safe from hurricanes because it's rare for one to come far enough south to directly hit the island. That being said, we do still experience storms that are a result of weather conditions far north of us. Last night we experienced one of the worst storms we've had since arriving which was directly related to Tropical Storm Philippe which has just made landfall in Barbuda. Luckily the tent covering Liger held up well, in part because it was built with storms like this in mind.

Safety is key when climbing the mast onboard Linnea! And this is our version 2.0 🤯 Always use two lines in case one will fail! At the beginning we used two running halyards, which meant that the one on deck was controlling two lines at the same time, tightening one and then the other and so on. It worked, but it was a very time consuming solution and it wasn’t very safe either! Doing this instead, the one on deck only have one line to control. The prusik knot is controlled by the person in the mast, who simply just moves it along the static halyard (the one attached to the foot of the mast) while going both up and down. Simple as that! Let us know what you think of this! Do you think this is a good solution or do you have a better one you like to share? How do you do when you climb the mast? Don’t forget to save this video 🫶🏼
